Το αυταρχικό καθεστώς [The Autocratic Regime]

This book attempts an examination of the dictatorial rule of Greece. It begins with the regime’s birth and the causes that led to its dominance, while stressing the fact that the coup d’etat was not a necessity.
The author identifies four periods of the dictatorial rule, analyzes in detail the main events during those four periods, and discusses the nature of the regime.

Through a sedulous research regarding whether the regime was a fascist one, and with the presentation of the historical data and the comparative examination of the international bibliography, it turns out that the regime of ‘April 21’ was not a fascist one. The regime’s typology leads to the conclusion that it was an autocratic one, the definition of which is provided by the author.

Subsequently, the notion of totalitarianism is examined and a historical overview is offered, along with an analysis of its basic principles and elements. The conclusion offered indicates that the colonels’ regime was not totalitarian but a military dictatorship.

This is where the definition of the latter is offered: “An autocratic regime which draws its power from the army.” The author then proceeds with an analysis of the regime as a form of government and its fall.

The next chapter discusses eight precepts that followed the coup d’etat of April 1967, as well as the consequences of the autocratic regime—mainly the torture of citizens and the abuse of freedom.

The fourth chapter offers a comparative examination of military interventions in Greece since 1828, followed by a discussion of the problem of the relationship between the society and a coup d’etat.

The volume concludes with an analysis of the factors that led to the formation and final actualization of the coup d’etat. The final part offers various conclusions pertaining to Greek reality, the guarantees needed, and the lessons learned from the seven-year period of the dictatorship.
